Aging Humor
Boy, she sure has a sense of humor for an "older lady". Hmm, what does THAT mean?
Getting older can sometimes mean finding more funny things in life. After all, "I've paid my dues!" I've raised my kids." "I want to have fun." Aging and getting older should be fun! Aging should include a fun sense of humor!
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! My theory on aging is that I want people to know why I look this way.
I've traveled a long way and many of the roads weren't paved.
First you forget names, then you forget faces. Then you forget to pull up your zipper.
Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to your youth, remember Algebra. (or in my case, Spanish and Plane Geometry)
One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is better than being young. (You don’t get acne, now it’s rosacea!)
You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"
There are many theories of aging. My theory is: "I'm more awesome!"
Let us pray: Dearest Lord, your plans for our lives are yours. Each life stage teaches us new things you would have us learn. Help us to shepherd our younger folks in a positive way and help our younger folks realize the wisdom of aging. Amen
